“Under a totalitarian regime, the law is only a bloodless but violent tool of the authorities to control the people, and the court is not a place of justice.”
「極權下的法律只是政權用以規範人民行為的不流血暴力手段,而法庭也不是一個彰顯公義的地方。」
A brave girl.

Do not go gentle into that good night
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Amid the large police presence in #HongKong during Xi Jinping’s apparent ‘visit’ on 7.1, a sign was found in busy Causeway Bay. It reads:
“We have the right to mourn. I’ll keep mourning you til someone mourns me.”
「悼念是每個人的權利,所以直至有人悼念我之前,我都會繼續悼念你」
